Far from being angry I almost smiled as I read his words, it was clear, he was now playing some kind of game, which I could either play or walk away from permanently. I didn't hesitate I just deleted the message, I knew he would soon find someone else, if he hadn't already, so I felt no trace of guilt as I put the phone on the bedside table, laid back down on the bed and tried to make some sense of everything. The past months had been anything but dull, but now with Lainie and Kat both in lasting, loving relationships, perhaps it was time to start thinking about myself. Jay had only really been about wild, bordering on animalistic sex, which, I had to admit, would have been more than enough for me at one time, but not any more. Although I felt strangely thankful, after all, he had made me feel a level of physical intensity I hadn't even guessed, I was capable of experiencing. As for Vanessa, there were so many deeply-felt emotions bound up with her, but perhaps, one day, I would have no choice but to accept, there might never be a time when they could ever really be resolved. Our lives were just too different, meaning anything we shared might, in the end, always remain somehow unfinished. This was one thought I just wasn't, in any conceivable way, ready to face ,so even though I was still dressed, I pulled the covers over me, nestled into the soft pillows and drifted off to sleep.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I was born in London but have always traveled extensively and been fortunate enough to meet many genuinely interesting people in my life, both professionally and personally.
I am an intensely private person, so writing for me, has always been my favourite way of communicating with the world, sharing life experiences through the words of my characters.
Away from writing, my family are my priority, they are a constant source of joy and I am forever grateful for all their love and encouragement.
